The Galveston Haunted Pub Crawl takes you and your favorite drinking buddies through Oleander City’s most haunted pubs and restaurants. From the ghosts of hurricane victims still lost in the wreckage to civil war soldiers who still stand for Texas, you’ll need every drop of liquid courage if you want to relive these sordid tales from the past, let alone walk the blood-stained streets of The Strand. So, saddle up, catch a buzz, and see how much you can stomach with Ghost City Tours.
This is a walking pub crawl through the island's most haunted pubs and restaurants, so it fits a group that wants to drink and hear dark stories as they move rather than sit for a lecture. The pitch runs from the ghosts of hurricane victims still lost in the wreckage to Civil War soldiers standing for Texas, told as you walk the streets of The Strand. It reads adults-only in tone, boozy and a little theatrical, so bring your drinking buddies and a strong stomach.
A pub crawl bends its route around where you drink, which makes it different from a straight storytelling walk or a cemetery tour. If you would rather stay sober and reflective, a standard night walk suits you better. Galveston is an old port island with a heavy record of hurricanes, epidemics, and war, and this crawl uses the bars along The Strand as its stage for those stories. Come thirsty, expect to be on your feet, and pace yourself.
